I completely disagree with the provincial government attempting to have any input on bike lanes in municipal right of ways. It is an absurd overreach of the provincial government and is a waste of tax dollars. Bike lanes are proven to reduce congestion and improve safety. And the removal of existing bike lanes is a disgusting waste as well. The government's efforts should be focused on improvement of public transport and other types of mass transit with the goal of reducing the number of drivers on the roads. More lanes does not reduce traffic congestion. There are many sources for this, yet the provincial government choose to ignore them for their own political gains.
I also completely disagree with the language herein relating to excemptions from the Environmental Assessment Act as it relates to the 413. There is no reason that established environmental protocols should be end run for this highway.
